I couldn't afford Premier Pro, so I did a buy burn and return and got it for 50 cents. It's a rip but I don't care. They burn us on the price, so we burn them at the return counter.

phenomenon in which greater input of effort, money, etc. yields smaller results. Crucial part of the idea is that if you're using x to get y results (where y is the thing you want). then additional input a will yield additional results b, but not in the same proportion as before.
On average, before, you put in x to get y, so your yield was y/x. But if you increase x by amount a, then your results will be y + b, where
(y + b)/(x + a) < y/x
and this will only get worse.
Diminishing marginal returns (DMR) is used to explain why the supply curve in economics slopes upward, i.e., increasing the quantity supplied requires an increased price of most things.
Sometimes DMR is more than offset by "economies of scale," which allows more of a thing to be supplied more cheaply than a small amount.

Get the Rotund mug.The more porn you watch, the more hardcore the porn has to be for you to get an erection and to finish. For example, if you watch porn sporadically regular straight porn will do the trick.

Get the mickey rourke mug.Originating at Georgia Tech, in the fraternity house of Pi Kappa Phi, a "return to sender" is only successful with a partner. While receiving great head, the male must, without warning, ejaculate into the female's mouth. Lost in the confusion, the woman must swallow the semen and then proceed to vomit on the male's penis. The return to sender is a rare sight to witness and is rarely planned. If you have been on the giving or receiving end of this depraved sexual act, consider yourself lucky.
